Mule-drawn tobacco transplanter
Title: Mule-drawn tobacco transplanter
Identifier: Tobacco Farm Life Museum   (https://digital.lib.ecu.edu/13899)
Description: Mule-drawn tobacco transplanter. These large tools were the predecessor to modern-day transplanters and were drawn by mules. They allowed a farmer to sit and ride down the rows while transplanting seedlings. It also included a water barrel to soak the seedlings as it passed over the rows. The accompanying video describes the process of transplanting tobacco using the machine from the perspective of a former tobacco worker. Date approximated.
